Beautiful area! Very rocky. Great little walk over looking the water. You can also go a bit higher up hiking which is slightly tougher as it's going over rocks

The "road" leading up to the area was a little sketchy at best during the winter months, use at your own risk. Not bad if you have 4x4 and good tires. The view was amazing. It's called windy point for good reason, very strong winds. Parking wasn't too bad in this spot.

Windy point was great as usual! You get a beautiful view of Abraham Lake! However it wasn't windy. Our Canadian troupes were doing rappelling training on the cliff as well!

How can you not give nature 5 stars? This half way between Jasper and Banff point is an absolute gem. The turquoise water, the steady wind and the amazing depth of field makes for a quick photo or a lengthy meditation. There's plenty of room if you want to be alone. And when you return, because this place haunts you in your dreams, its timelessness welcomes you back. If you're longing to experience near eternity, this is your place.

Definitely lives up to its name. The wind picks up as you get closer to the water. There are several nice spots to take breathe taking photos. Nice not-so-little spot to stop and stretch your legs and enjoy the scenery. It's a little tricky to find the entrance to the parking lot of your are heading east along the Highway so best to use navigation not to miss it

This place continues to surprise me. I thought it was just a lovely spot for a picnic but there is also a bird house which doubles as a memorial and today we discovered that the cliff wall has anchor points at the top that have been secured professionally to enable cliff climbing and rappelling to occur. A short walk away across Highway 11 there is a mountain side walk to the peak which also has a memorial bench located about one third of the way up.

Lots of people. Hiking shoes are good, when a gust of wind comes...you at least stand a chance of staying in one spot lol

Beautiful spot. Once the lake is froze, large bubbles form under the ice. Methane gas from decaying plant life form the unique bubbles.
